This year rejuvenated our faith in the shooter genre. From a classic being brought back, new Hero Shooters, to giving us a glimpse of war in the future and past wars like World War 1 and even warfare in the Stone Age. These were our picks for the Best Shooters of 2016.
AND THE NOMINEES ARE…
FAR CRY PRIMAL (Ubisoft)
TITANFALL 2 (Respawn/EA)
BATTLEFIELD 1 (DICE/EA)
DOOM (ID/Bethesda)
OVERWATCH (BLIZZARD)
AND THE WINNER IS…
TITANFALL 2
When you’re game involves a high amount of movement, death-defying acrobatics and crazy fast gun-fights, not to mention high powered Mechs, there isn’t much more we want for a shooter. Titanfall 2 brought all of this plus a great storymode that help fleshed out the world, a fun pair of characters with Jack and BT, and some of the coolest level designs of 2016.
